      <image:title>Home - Why Us?</image:title>
      <image:caption>At Roden Bible Journeys our motto is “blending spiritual, archaeological, and cultural travel into fascinating biblical journeys.” We strive to transport the traveler into the world of the Bible by placing them in actual biblical locations. While there, the traveler will be able to visualize the ancient world through the archaeological and cultural teaching of Dr. Roden or other academic scholars. Dr. Roden, however, is insistent that the journeys do not focus solely on the cultural and archaeological. All of Dr. Roden’s Bible Journeys feature spiritual and devotional elements. Thus, you will have an opportunity to walk, worship, and spiritually grow in the very places where Jesus, David, the prophets, the Apostles, Paul, and early Church Leaders did.</image:caption>
